This week’s tip: scheduling jobs in APEX using APEX automation and its advantages over using DBMS_SCHEDULER.
With APEX automations (and access to the builder environment), you can do it all. You are in an APEX session, which means that you can directly invoke APEX mail, APEX collections, or other functions without any lines of code.
Hayden and Anton also answer last week’s puzzler on how to connect nine dots using four line segments without lifting your pencil.
Enjoy!
